  Thought this was really nice, but its one of those recipes that deceive you into thinking its healthy (its the word courgette that does it!) but packs a bit of a calorie punch. Wondering if the calorie count was right I Weightwatchers pointed it.. 19. Yep, that's a lot. This does make a substantial bowlful though. Would make a nice dinner party starter if served half or even third portions.

  I wasn't expecting to like it this much, but it was really really good - the lemon zest makes it. A lovely creamy, zingy winter warmer.

  Made this last night and loved it , had to use a clean tea towel to get the moisture out of the courgettes as this was alot quicker. Will be making this again ! If not in a slightly smaller portion next time :-) !!

  This was lovely. So nice we are having it for tea again tonight. I halved the recipe for 2 people. Used pancetta instead of bacon and squeezed half a lemon in at the end. Easy peasy to make.

  Very good. Did't have double cream so used Cream Cheese instead, worked really well.

  Really disappointed with this. Halved the recipe except(by mistake) for the chilli and the bacon. Thank goodness as this was the only thing that gave it any flavour. So bland. No taste from the courgettes and mixing egg yolk, Parmesan and cream just gave a 'gloopy' lump which was hard to mix in despite the drop of cooking water!
